"Let me be clear that I am not a professional chef or anything near. I just cook dinner in my kitchen. I have however been cooking for 50 years and this is the best knife I have ever used. I love it! It is super sharp and makes short work of prepping. It is also well balanced and feels free in my hand. I can’t say enough good about it."
"Such an unbelievably beautiful knife. Elegantly balanced. Super sharp. The urgent care doctor said it was a clean cut when giving me stitches. I can’t wait to try it beyond the first piece of garlic-much more carefully though!"
"Sharp, strong and just a great knife to use."
"This knife is amazing."
"Love this knife! I decided to indulge myself with a new chefs knife. I inherited my German knives from my aunt and they are about 75 years old these knives are still good but i wanted my own I’m. I chose messermeister after lots of research and also loved the olive wood handle. It’s a little heavier than I expected but feels wonderful in hand."
"fantastic and beautiful knife"
"I am a huge fan of this knife! One of my favorite things about it is the wood, curved handle. It fits and feels so nice in my hand. The blade is very sharp and I anticipate it will be easy to sharpen on my whetstone. I want to purchase the 6” blade and also a bread knife, big fan of this line!"
"I will have this knife for decades to come. It’s gorgeous, excellent craftsmanship, and came razor sharp! I love it."
"I’ve owned this same knife for three years, and needed a great gift for one of my buddies. He always envied my fleet of Messermeister knives so I got him his first one with this purchase. Now this can be his gateway drug (knife) to future great knives."
"What else to say? It is a beautiful knife sharp and does everything I want. The bread knife I got as well is just as great"
